You Made Me a Superstar

  Chapter 567 Storytelling! Counterattack!

  North America usually refers to regions such as the United States, Canada and Greenland, and is one of the most economically developed regions in the world.

George Lusink is the person in charge of other North American film industries other than the United States. In the early years, this old man was a passionate young man who dreamed of being a director and made several films, but he really didn't have this aspect With his talent and bad reputation at the box office, he had no choice but to inherit the family inheritance and become a happy fat house and film businessman.

   China's first exported kung fu film, Liang Xiaolong's "Dragon and Tiger Fight", was discovered by his family.

When everyone felt that this movie was worthless, his family under pressure bought all the overseas broadcasting rights of this movie, and finally saved the "Dragon and Tiger" while also saving Liang Xiaolong This unknown Chinese Kung Fu master was promoted to the whole world, and finally blossomed with amazing brilliance, becoming a world-class Kung Fu master.

  Later...

  With the passing of Liang Xiaolong, Huaxia Kung Fu movies experienced a trough, and then Van Loon’s reappearance pulled Kung Fu movies out of the trough, but it was only pulled out, and did not reach a new height.

   Zhou Yang's office is very simple.

  On a desk, there are a lot of materials and books.

The desk is very cheap. According to George Lusenke’s estimate, this desk is less than a thousand dollars. There are all kinds of books on the desk, including psychology, business, and art. , there are movies...

  There are no world-famous paintings hanging on the walls of the office. The whole thing is white, so simple that there are no musical instruments. In fact, after reading it, it is really unbelievable that this is the office of a "master of music creation".

  The only thing that surprised George Lusek was the small tea room of about ten square meters next to the office.

  The tea table seems to be carefully carved from the roots of giant trees. The criss-cross texture makes people very close to nature, but without losing the artistic charm, especially the box of tea on the tea table.

  The exquisiteness of the packaging made George Lusek feel that this is an extremely noble work of art.

   "Mr. George Lusek, sit down..."

"OK!"

  When Zhou Yang saw George Lusenke, he had a gentle smile on his face, carefully opened the tea box, and carefully made a cup of tea for George Lusenke.

I don’t know if it’s because he has been to Vienna and listened to Zhou Yang’s saxophone "Going Home" or "Wedding March" and other master pieces. George Lusek instinctively felt it from this Chinese. There is a sense of elegance derived from art, which is extremely noble, especially the "gentle and elegant" appearance when making tea, as if born with a certain "noble" temperament, which is unbearable He stood up in awe.

  Before George Lusek met Zhou Yang, he thought of countless business routines in his mind.

For example, first chat with Zhou Yang about "Spider-Man", talk about the predicament Zhou Yang is in now, talk about the future of "Spider-Man", talk about your own appearance, being the savior of "Spider-Man", etc. The price was lowered, and even bought out the screening rights.

but…

   Zhou Yang didn't seem to have any intention of talking about movies with George Lusek.

  Like an old friend, he chatted with George Lusenke about tea and Chinese tea culture...

If we talk about coffee, George Lusek can still talk a lot, but tea is George Lusek’s blind spot. He desperately wants to transfer the topic to movies, or to his best field, but every time he comes to mouth, but could not speak, but listened to Zhou Yang chatting about the myths and stories about tea vividly.

  Sometimes weird, shocking, astonishing, or simply feeling the uncanny craftsmanship of China, at first he could talk to Zhou Yang sensibly, but in the end, he could only marvel at the magic and profoundness of Chinese culture.

   One hour passed while sipping tea and listening to stories.

  Although he is not very good at tasting tea, listening to the story and listening to Zhou Yang describe the beauty of tea, George Lusink had an inexplicable sense of the fragrance of tea, and couldn't help but want to admire it.

   "Mr. George Lusenke, this small box of tea leaves is for you!"

   "Ah, this, this, Mr. Zhou Yang, how can this work, this..."

"Mr. George Lusenke, don't look at this is just a small box, every gram is more precious than gold, it grows on the cliff, exposed to the sun and wind for a hundred years, and finally gathers the essence of heaven and earth tea…"

   "Mr. Zhou Yang, did you drink this tea to create such amazing music?"

   "Not all of them, but it does provide a little inspiration, so that you can clear your mind when you are sleepy..."

"it is good!"

George Lusek was dumbfounded listening to Zhou Yang chatting about the beauty of tea. When Zhou Yang handed over the small bag of tea leaves, he couldn't help shaking his hands slightly, only to feel that these few tea leaves were extremely heavy .

  Reminiscent of Zhou Yang's experience in China, from a humble youth in debt to filming a series of movies with good box office, to creating world-class famous songs, which have been praised by world-class musicians...

  George Lusek actually felt that the value of this tea was even more terrifying, and he felt a sense of honor in his heart.

"Mr. George Lusenke, my thoughts on the movie "Spider-Man" are actually very simple. I am very confident that this is a blockbuster movie, and I can come up with more blockbuster movies. Month... In fact, I have a sci-fi movie called "The Bottom of the Mine", which is only partly completed..."

   "..."

  George Lusek looked at Zhou Yang.

   This Chinese man is really extremely confident.

  The eyes radiated light. Although this kind of light was not particularly sharp, let alone like a sword, it made him feel inexplicably ashamed.

  George Lusek has met countless people in his life, but few of them are like today. He obviously has countless business routines to talk about, but in the end, he is forced to be suppressed by the "plan" that Zhou Yang said.

   He said he wanted to make a Delaware film base.

  It is obviously a fantasy, but it is impossible to doubt.

   This Chinese man rose from humble beginnings. According to the data, he has been questioned and ridiculed by many people, but every movie has never hit the street.

  This is one of the very few directors in the history of film...

   Moreover, it is clear that his resume shows that he has never accepted real music creation, but he is extremely talented in music creation, as amazing as a god.

  George Lusek nodded instinctively.

  He believed it!

  Believed in all of Zhou Yang's plans, and signed "Spider-Man" and the North American release rights of the follow-up film of Zhou Yang's Huaxing Company at a very high price.

   When he left, George Lusek didn't feel disappointed because of this setback. Instead, he felt an indescribable excitement in his heart.

   "In the not-too-distant future, many musicians will come here to perform, and I will be the first to invite you over to listen to that performance..."

  Especially after Zhou Yang and George Lusek walked out of the house, Zhou Yang pointed to the distance, and what George Lusek said to George Lusek instantly felt his blood surge.

  ……………

   Night falls.

   Everything is silent.

   Zhou Yang finished his day's work, leaned on the chair and closed his eyes to rest.

  He felt like he had changed.

  Especially when chatting with George Lusenke, Zhou Yang inexplicably had a very strong sense of self-confidence.

  This sense of self-confidence allowed him to control all the atmosphere in the office in an orderly manner, and brought George Luxen into his own world.

   Zhou Yang turned his head and looked at the tea leaves on the table. He suddenly felt a little inexplicably ashamed.

  He was subconsciously criticizing himself, feeling a little shameless.

  The tea leaves on the table are indeed picked from the cliffs. The villagers in Qingshui Village have also said that the tea tree has a history of at least a hundred years.

   But the story about the tea leaves, about the wind and rain, about how precious...

   These were all made up by Zhou Yang.

  After writing so many scripts and watching so many Chinese cultures, Zhou Yang almost formed a kind of conditioned reflex, and the stories came to him casually, and they even stood up to scrutiny and were well-founded.

  【We never sell products, we sell concepts! 】

  【The best way to sell concepts is to tell stories, feelings, and values! 】

  Zhou Yang picked up a book called "The True Essence of the World" in the drawer, and turned to the bookmarked page.

  After self-criticizing for a long time, he finally stopped, and then continued to lean on the chair without any psychological burden, continuing to close his eyes and meditate.

   Wait until the wee hours of the morning...

  Xu Mei knocked on the door and walked in after getting permission.

"Mr. Zhou, the box office of "Spider-Man" has exceeded 8 million! George Lusek has signed contracts with many theaters in North America, and it will be screened tomorrow. Tomorrow, if everything goes well, our box office of "Spider-Man" It can break through tens of millions of dollars!"

"The box office of "King Kong" has fallen, and today it is only 20 million US dollars. The film's stamina is no longer enough. Although we have been in theaters for so many days, the occupancy rate still remains above 70%. After the completion of "King Kong" ", if we can sign with the four major theaters again, we are very likely to challenge "King Kong Tiger", which is the first time ever..."

   "..."

  Xu Mei excitedly reported the box office to Zhou Yang.

  Zhou Yang nodded, and at first he listened to Xu Mei talking, but then he began to lean back on the chair and fell asleep in a daze.

  ……………

   ""Spider-Man" was released in North America, and the response was very good!"

   "..."

  On the evening of July 3rd.

   "King Kong Tiger" director Tony Auman is very dissatisfied with the performance of "King Kong Tiger" today.

  Apart from the United States, attendance is slipping, and box office seems to be shrinking with every show.

  Tony Auman frowned in the office.

  When the assistant looked for the reason for the decline in the box office of "King Kong", Tony Auman's expression changed instantly.

  He suddenly had a very bad idea.

  In North America other than the United States, "Spider-Man" is very likely to compete with "King Kong" at the box office...

   (Break down a change today)
